Ecumenical Patriarch Pavlos I

Ecumenical Patriarch Pavlos I (290-351) was the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 337 to 351, succeeding Ecumenical Patriarch Alexandros and preceding Ecumenical Patriarch Makedonios I.

Biography
Pavlos was born in 290, and in 337 he was elected as the new Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople. Emperor Constantius II was angry that he was elected without his presence, and Pavlos was banished on two occasions, with Ecumenical Patriarch Makedonios I replacing him both times. In 346 he regained the patriarchate and reigned until his 351 death.
